Everything that a person does, must be done at the proper level. Especially if it concerns itself, darling. Face, body, nails, hair care should be at the highest level. But how not to get lost among the sea of offers of cosmetology firms? This article will help you make your choice. Let us dwell only on cosmetics for skin care, as well as creams for make-up.
In general terms, the market in this area is divided into the production of professional drugs and the mass market. The latter is presented in stores in the form of countless beautiful boxes, bottles, tubes and bubbles. Sometimes, an ineffective remedy is hidden behind a catchy facade. Recently, an increasing number of women are attracted to professional facial cosmetics. Reviews of cosmetologists about it, as well as an overview of the main manufacturers will be the topic of our conversation today.
Myths about professional cosmetics
Untrue rumors relate primarily to makeup products. Say, they are designed for actors who work in the merciless light of spotlights. That is, such a makeup adheres well to the skin, but in the end brings irreparable harm to it. We want to please you: the times are long gone when the actors applied zinc white on their faces . And it is unlikely that modern television divisions will make such a sacrifice to please the viewer. In fact, professional decorative cosmetics for the face not only mask flaws and emphasize the dignity of a person, but also gently cares for the skin of the face.
Make-up stylists do not need beautiful packaging - they are interested in the content. And therefore, the sign of professional cosmetics is often the plain design of boxes and bottles. But the make-up lasts well all day, it does not smear, does not slide into lumps, and does not clog into pores. And it is hypoallergenic, nourishes, moisturizes, protects from the sun and the effects of the big city, heals in the end.

After a sleepless glamorous party, the telediva should be fresh, like a rose washed by rain. This is where instant lifting and a wonderful eye cream are used, smoothing bags under the lower eyelids. But behind the momentary effect, there is a "rollback", and the skin looks even worse than before using these funds. What should the best professional facial cosmetics look like? First, it should match your skin type. It will be better if the product is recommended by a professional cosmetologist. There is no need to experiment on yourself, choosing the right cream by trial and error. But here you need to keep an eye out: many cosmetologists and stylists in collusion with manufacturers of cosmetics. Pay attention to the composition of the product. It should not contain strong and fast-acting drug components. It’s also good to deal with independent expert reviews in order to get an idea of the brands and brands you can trust.

Professional Russian face cosmetics
There are several domestic brands praised by experts. First of all, it is “Black Pearl”, the products of which are exported to neighboring countries. The company produces products for both the mass market and for in-depth facial treatment. As a rule, these are complexes for different skin types and ages.

Great praise is given to Nevskaya Cosmetics. The company focuses on the naturalness of the components used. So, in the cream for oily skin "Apricot" contains oil from the seeds of this fruit, extract from aloe and olives, moisturizing complex "Hydroviton 24" and glycerin. There is an anti-aging series in the Nevskaya - Ginseng.
"Vizazh" is a decorative professional Russian face cosmetics. Mention should also be made of such domestic companies as Alpika, Geltek-Medika, ZAO Gittin and Mirra Professional. It should be said that some Russian-made medicinal cosmetic products should not be sought in stores, but in pharmacies. So, for example, Retinoevoj ointment ointment (produced in concentrations of 0.05 and 0.1%) can be bought for 130 rubles only there.
Professional french facial cosmetics
The popularity of stylish jars from Dior, Yves Rocher, L'Oreal, Bourjois, ROC and Maybelline no one thinks to dispute. What about makeup? All these mascaras, eyebrow gels, eye shadow, blush and powder? Of course, almost all French cosmetics can be called professional. After all, developers use the results of serious laboratory research, advanced technologies and high-quality (sometimes exclusive) components. The only negative is packaging. French companies remain faithful to the aesthetic component, so they release their creams in jars. But many components are oxidized in air, and with our fingers we bring in a bunch of different bacteria. It is also worth warning about the risk of buying counterfeit products. All of the above brands can be found in mass market stores. But there is also a truly professional French face makeup. This is the Centro Messegue line, developed by herbal therapist Jean Kleber, Result by COLLIN, Simon Mahler.
Japanese cosmetics
Women of the Land of the Rising Sun have long been the object of envious talk because of their unfading youth. Some see the merit of the genotype in this, but the secret lies in high-quality face and body care products. Many people like decorative Japanese cosmetics. This is, first of all, shadows, blush, mascara, matting creams. Against the background of excellent home care products, an expensive, but very effective professional facial cosmetics stands out. The brands that have made Japan famous all over the world are La Sintsere, Yokota Lab., Suhada, as well as luxury products from Paul and Shiseido. The main feature of cosmetics is unique antioxidant complexes. We can say that Japanese creams belong to the anti-aging series.
The criterion is quality at low cost.
Professional cosmetics for the face should not make a dent in the family budget at all. Reviews of cosmetologists list very inexpensive brands among successful manufacturers. Here we have compiled a rating of firms that produce products up to thirty US dollars. First of all, this is Source Naturals. This brand produces professional serums and creams with retinol, hyaluronic acid, vitamins.
Excellent reviews of Derma E. products. Dermatologists and the Foxbrim brand with its range of anti-aging cosmetics rated high . The hits of the season were lotion with aloe vera and vitamins, a cream with moisturizing retinol and serum with valuable peptides. The Perfect Image brand was created by professional chemists. Reviews of salon cosmetologists praise the peeling of this brand.
Also worth mentioning are companies such as Puritan's Pride and EltaMD (sunscreen series). Regularly included in the ranking of inexpensive professional cosmetics Neutrogena. Reviva Labs products contain peptides, collagen and various beneficial acids. Serum and moisturizing mask from OZ Naturals, gel and cream from Beauty Style have earned praise.
Professional makeup
Those who often have to paint their eyes and apply powder know how important it is to choose the right tools for make-up. After all, poor-quality mascara crumbles, and bad eyeshadows only emphasize facial wrinkles. But makeup should not only lie down well, but also heal the skin. This effect provides decorative professional cosmetics for the face. The reviews of cosmetologists rank among the five leaders in terms of quality the legendary powder of Jean Iredal PurePressed, blush from NARS, foundation matting cream from Steel Cosmetics, shadows Nike from Urban Decay and a brightening primer from Tarte. Also worth mentioning are the Deborah Lipmann varnishes and the eye cream with hyaluronic acid that removes all the imperfections and signs of lack of sleep from Terry. You can not ignore the bronzer from NARS, with which the skin will have a natural and healthy tan.
Emphasis on natural ingredients
In abundance, nature gives us a lot of plants useful for the skin, extracts, decoctions and extracts from which are used by professional cosmetics. Facial treatment will give tangible results if the products you use include jojoba oil (softening, strengthening the epidermis), rosehip extract (vitamin C, antioxidant), tea tree oil (antiseptic), horse chestnut (stimulating collagen formation), Shea butter (moisturizing), cane calamus (narrowing of pores, elimination of oily sheen). But along with natural components, “chemistry” must also be present. But how else do plant extracts penetrate deep into the skin? Ethyl alcohol dissolves the ingredients. It is a reliable natural preservative.
Premium cosmetics
Above, we listed the brands of face care products that are related to the low and middle price segment. If you have extra money, why not treat yourself? Are you interested in expensive professional facial cosmetics? Premium brands include Academie, Israeli Adina and Anna Lotan, Adonia Organics, Spanish AlissiBronte, Aroma Jazz, Arcadia, US-based Bio Creative Labs, Derma Pro and CRC, Swiss Binella, German Charlotte Mintzen, Italian DIBI and Dr. Laurann. The list is far from complete. Particular attention should be paid to innovative developments of Israeli specialists who use Dead Sea salts in their inventions in this field.
To help funds
If you lead an unhealthy lifestyle, smoke, lack of sleep, content yourself with snacks, then even the most advanced and effective professional facial cosmetics will not save you. Reviews of cosmetologists argue that only an integrated approach to skin care can give a positive and lasting result. Then your face and body will be perfect.
